Definitions
- This invention pertains to RF communication systems or, more particularly, to a method of identifying subscribers in RF communication systems.
- FIG. 1 depicts a typical RF communication system (100).
- the RF communication system includes fixed equipment (3) arranged to facilitate communication between subscriber A (1) and subscriber B (2).
- Such systems typically identify subscribers by providing each subscriber an identification number (ID) unique within the system.
- ID identification number
- subscriber A has identification ID A (43) and subscriber B has identification number ID B (44).
- Certain RF systems also include a console.
- a console Such an arrangement (200) is shown in FIG. 2, which depicts a typical RF communication system equipped with a console (8) connected to the RF communication system's fixed equipment (6) via a suitable link (7). Since identification numbers ID A and ID B have been assigned so they are unique within the RF communication system, these numbers are also unique to the console and, as a result, the console is able to identify a subscriber on the basis of a single ID.
- FIG. 3 shows a single console (11) connected to the fixed equipment (14) of a first communication system via a first link (12), and connected to the fixed equipment (15) of a second RF communication system via a second link (13).
- subscriber N 16
- ID N #1 45
- ID N #2 436
- ID N #1 45
- ID N #2 436
- the ID it uses will vary according to which system it is currently operating in. As a result, the console will not be able to identify such a subscriber on the basis of a single ID.
- the apparatus and method includes and makes use of a data base that assists in interfacing a console user that wishes to use only a single ID for each subscriber, and a subscriber that has more than one ID to facilitate its operation in multiple systems.
- FIG. 1 depicts a typical RF communication system, as in the prior art.
- FIG. 2 depicts a typical RF communication system arranged with a console, as in the prior art.
- FIG. 3 depicts two typical RF communication systems arranged with a single console.
- FIG. 4 depicts an universal ID arrangement.
- FIG. 5 depicts a first data base arrangement.
- FIG. 6 depicts a second data base arrangement.
- FIG. 7 depicts a third data base arrangement.
- the universal ID arrangement (400) is shown in FIG. 4.
- the figure depicts the fixed equipment (19) of a first RF communication system connected to a console (24) by means of a first link (20), a data base (26) and a third link (25).
- the fixed equipment (22) of a second RF communication system is connected to the console by means of a second link (23), the data base (26), and the third link (25).
- subscriber N (17) is a typical subscriber capable of communicating in both RF communication systems.
- subscriber N (17) is provided with three IDs: ID N #1 (18), which is unique within the first RF communication system; ID N #2 (21), which is unique within the second RF communication system; and ID N CONSOLE (27), which is unique within the console (24).
- the console (24) when the console (24) wishes to identify subscriber N (17) to the first and second communication systems, it transmits ID N CONSOLE (27) to the data base (26) via the third link (25).
- the data base upon receipt of ID N CONSOLE (27), generates ID N #1 (18) and ID N #2 (21), using the first data base arrangement (500) of FIG. 5, which will be discussed below.
- the data base (26) then transmits ID N #1 (18) to the fixed equipment (19) of the first communication system via the first link (20), and ID N #2 (21) to the fixed equipment (22) of the second communication system via the second link (23).
- this figure depicts the first data base arrangement (500) of the data base (26).
- this arrangement (500) provides a method for mapping subscriber N's ID N CONSOLE (28) onto subscriber N's associated ID N #1 (30) and ID N #2 (31).
- ID N CONSOLE (28) forms a particular address (29) in the data base (26), with a particular memory word (32) stored at that address.
- the memory word (32) comprises field A (33) and field B (34), with field A (33) containing ID N #1 (30) and field B (34) containing ID N #2 (31).
- subscriber N (17) when subscriber N (17) is operating in the first communication system and wishes to identify itself to the console (24), it transmits ID N #1 (18) to the fixed equipment (19) of the first communication system which, in turn, transmits ID N #1 to the data base (26) via the first L. link (20).
- the data base upon receiving ID N #1 via the first link, generates ID N CONSOLE (27), using the second data base arrangement (600) which will be discussed below.
- the data base (26) then transmits ID N CONSOLE (27) to the console (24) via the third link (25).
- this figure depicts the second data base arrangement (600) of the data base (26).
- this arrangement provides a method for mapping subscriber N's ID N #1 (35) onto subscriber N's associated ID N CONSOLE (37).
- ID N #1 (35) forms a particular address (36) in the data base (26), with a particular memory word (38) stored at that address.
- subscriber N (17) when subscriber N (17) is operating in the second communication system and wishes to identify itself to the console (24), it transmits ID N #2 (21) to the fixed equipment (22) of the second communication system which, in turn, transmits ID N #2 to the data base (26) via the second link (23).
- the data base upon receiving ID N #2 via the second link, generates ID N CONSOLE (27), using the third data base arrangement (700) which will be discussed below.
- the data base (26) then transmits ID N CONSOLE (27) to the console (24) via the third link (25).
- this figure depicts the third data base arrangement (700) of the data base (26).
- this arrangement provides a method for mapping subscriber N's ID N #2 (39) onto subscriber N's associated ID N CONSOLE (41).
- the data base (26) is arranged so that ID N #2 (39) forms a particular address (40) in the data base (26), with a particular memory word (42) stored at that address.
- the memory word (42) in turn, contains ID N CONSOLE (41).
